Description

Welcome to 2238 E 56th Street, a beautifully updated 3-bed, 2-bath home in one of Minneapolis’ most sought-after neighborhoods, just south of Lake Nokomis! Thoughtfully designed with modern updates while maintaining its timeless character, this home is truly move-in ready. Step inside to a stunning brand-new kitchen, featuring one-of-a-kind stone countertops, all-new Samsung wifi enabled appliances, fixtures, and custom cabinetry, a full 'to the studs' renovation and true showstopper! The main-level bath has been impeccably remodeled, blending the home’s original tile with fresh, modern touches, bold wallpaper, black accents, and a sleek vessel sink sitting atop a black dolomite countertop for added sophistication. Two bright and airy bedrooms on the main level provide comfortable living, while the lower level offers a spacious family room, an additional bedroom, and a second bath. The family room has been completely refreshed with brand-new carpet (2025), updated ceiling, and fresh paint. Two new egress windows in the lower level add bright light and a more open feeling. Additional upgrades include new wifi enabled Samsung washer and dryer (2023), a new furnace (2024), and brand-new air conditioning (2025), ensuring comfort for years to come. Outdoors, enjoy a private driveway, with plenty of additional parking plus a full 2 car garage. The long yard is fully fenced and you have the option to keep the moveable shed as a studio, workshop or yoga room. Plus, a brand-new roof is scheduled for installation in March 2025, making this home an incredible value! Enjoy easy access to Lake Nokomis (just 1 block away), Minnehaha Parkway, parks, trails, and top local spots like Riverview Café, Town Hall Tap, and Fat Lorenzo’s.
